MEMRI: their hilarious standards

So MEMRI switches from covering religious Ben Ladenite kooks in the Arab world to covering the propagandists of the ruling Arab regimes (minus Syria). In the past, MEMRI would refer to the propagandists of the Saudi And Egyptian regimes as "progresives" and "liberals". Lately, I notice that they are referred to as "moderates of the Arab world"--only to read adn discover that this "moderate is an editor of a mouthpiece of this Saudi prince or that.
